Chapter 1 Edamame tastes different
Naming a child is easy for some, but painful for others. The difficulty is not in the meaning of the name, but in the choice.
"What is our son's name, that's the question. I think the radios could be sent out first so that they can be quelled by the tide of naming offensives. ”
The child is full moon, and I just had a meal and received a lot of gifts. Wang Juan breastfed the child, and Zhang Xiaobao provided a shoulder for Wang Juan to lean on, worrying about himself.
Until now, the little guy who has never belonged to his own name is not honest at all when he eats, and every time he swallows two mouthfuls of milk, he raises his eyes to look at the noisy man on the side, and the dissatisfaction in his eyes is undoubtedly expressed.
Wang Juan hugged his son and said in a low voice: "Be quiet, it's rude to disturb other people's meals, it's really not good, wait for the half-year ceremony to decide on the name?" ”
"Half-year ceremony?" Zhang Xiaobao repeated questioningly, and sighed helplessly.
When a child is born, according to local customs, there are those who have a year old and a full moon. When his son was born, he passed a full moon first, and someone actually proposed a February ceremony and a March ceremony...... 1st Anniversary Celebration ...... Second Week Ceremony......
Once a month, it looks lively, doesn't it? The problem is that you want to have a party and eat atmosphere, and our family can't go crazy with you.
"Yes, half-year ceremony. Li Longji gave a name, his father-in-law gave a name, our grandfather gave a name, my father and my father gave a name, and the ministers who usually have a good relationship, the bachelors of Jixian Academy, and the folk naming contest collected by various newspapers. ”
When Wang Juan spoke, he touched the head of his son, who was loved by thousands of people, and the little guy stopped talking and gave his mother a big smile.
Zhang Xiaobao frowned, thought about it for a while, and said, "Is it difficult for me to give me an Arabic name?" Use all the names given by everyone, that's my son, not their son, what do you care? It is also said that our son's five elements lack fire, it is better to be called Huohuo, don't you think it? ”
"Sure enough, he is the champion and talented." Wang Juan glanced at Zhang Xiaobao.
"It's called Lili." Zhang Xiaobao came up with a nickname again.
"Yo, when did my husband like the I Ching?"
"It's better to be called Mingming, it's better than being with Yang Yang every day, or it's a big fire, it's called a disaster, it is estimated that the whole Datang will go crazy, or Mingming is better, and rigidity and softness, yin and yang complement each other."
"Okay, it's obvious, I'm also a public figure in the future, I have to teach it well, don't make trouble for the society all day long, our family doesn't raise a fool." Wang Juan finally agreed to this name, nickname.
Zhang Xiaobao looked very happy: "See, the talent of the champion is not given for nothing, obviously, what a magical name, public figure, this ...... It seems that there is no need to wait for the future, it is now, and I don't know what that large group of public figures are doing? Ask someone in a moment. ”
******
The public figure who was talked about by Zhang Xiaobao is leading the students of more than 500 national prisons to do things at the moment.
These more than 500 people are all good learners, no matter what your identity is, who your father, your grandfather, and your grandmother are; It doesn't matter how much money you have at home, where you have a villa, and how many boats you have on the sea.
Don't say all the above additional identities, whoever dares to mention it will clean up whoever you want, didn't you see that the emperor's son Li Jun and the eldest princess Pan'er are obedient and do things there?
Due to the winter and summer vacations, it is not long before the school starts, but there is no Teacher's Day after the summer vacation. Students don't have to think about what gifts to give to the teacher, what kind of song and dance poetry meeting to hold when the parents invite the teacher to dinner, or what song and dance poetry meeting to hold at the beginning of the school year.
Respecting the teacher is not on a certain day, I really want to show respect, you have learned the knowledge taught to you by the master, and you can be happy for a long time when you have time to cook two dishes yourself, get a pot of wine, accompany the master to drink a few sips, and discuss the Tao or something.
This year, the Beijing Guozijian is on holiday, and none of the students inside have left, which is different from the children who go to school in other places and do not go home.
The children in the local area do not leave, some are busy with adults, some have no home, and some plan to participate in social practice activities arranged by the school, such as delivering newspapers, such as helping people read newspapers in teahouses, and most of the children left behind are going to the business to see how people operate.
When the business is working, it will not let the children participate in person, and they will have to free up manpower to take care of it, which will delay a lot of work. However, even so, the merchants are very willing, they participate in the sunrise action, pay money to the school, and bring the children to the family industry to watch, hoping that the children will leave a good impression, and in the future, they may be able to come to their own industries to help.
This year, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan have not left the capital, and they are still hanging on to the position of festival envoy, and they have nothing to do to wander around various departments, and the most they go to the Ministry of Industry, and then the Ministry of Households, but they have not been to Guozijian.
During the holidays, the students of Guozijian did not plan to leave, hoping that Wang Juan could come out after confinement and come to Guozijian with Zhang Xiaobao to have a look.
As a result, they didn't wait for Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, they waited for Xiaobei and them.
It's not that Xiaobei and the others don't want to come out, it's that the four children have been estranged from them, and it took them a few months to regain their status in the hearts of the little ones, so they brought the two-year-old little ones out to play.
The destination of the group is the west railway station of the capital, to be precise, a flat place one kilometer away from the railway station, where the freight warehouse is going to be built, the railway station in the west of the capital has just been built for more than a month, and there is no building on the ground at the moment a kilometer away, but the ground has been leveled.
When he came here, Xiaobei stopped, looked around, clapped his hands twice, and shouted: "Let's talk about it first, someone will send the materials for the stove in a while, as well as the pot or something, as well as the wheelbarrow used for transportation." The older ones are assigned to transport them, the younger ones are to do things with me, and the rest of the older female students are responsible for helping to take care of them.
We chose you because you are the best at all ages and stages of knowledge, students are respected and humbled by the size of their knowledge, your current identity is a student, and we don't want to see any of your attitudes and temperaments that do not belong to students when we come into contact with people today.
Those who talk to people impolitely, arrogantly, look down on people, are arrogant, and imply that they have the power and money in their own family, once we find out, hum! ”
More than 500 students opened their eyes wide, and they didn't dare to come out, especially the powerful in the family, they were even more nervous, they knew very well that they should not show their family background in front of Xiaobei, Xiaobei They wanted to establish an image, and the entire Tang Dynasty people should set up, and follow them out must be in line with their target behavior.
Xu Yilong, who had been studying with Xiaobei, sent a loudspeaker very interestingly, and asked cooperatively: "Xiaobei, what are you doing with us today?" ”
"That's a good question." Xiaobei nodded at Xu Yilong in appreciation, and then continued: "What is the work to be done today?" It is boiled beans, the kind that soybeans are green before they are ripe. Where do edamame beans come from? You would never guess that it came from Shanyang County, Chuzhou, our Datang Dynasty, a total of 3,000 tons, and I bought it. ”
Little Bebe drew a number, saw many people show surprised looks, nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "You must be thinking, how do I eat so many edamame beans when I buy them, why don't I process them locally?" ”
The students looked like I was thinking.
"To say that Shanyang County is really good, next to the Huaishui, there are canals, not far from the sea, plus a small fork of the railway, the local bamboo and wood resources are abundant, very suitable for the growth of vegetables, and whether it is livestock, poultry breeding, or aquatic product breeding, all provide a natural convenient environment.
But it is really not suitable for planting soybeans, not that it cannot be planted, but the natural climate has a great impact on the growth of soybeans. Especially this year, there is a lot of rain, and the soybeans are almost harvested in the same place, and it is still green.
A child in the school sent us a telegram asking what we should do? The beans don't grow big in them now, and they don't look round, and their current snack is boiled edamame.
We didn't have the ability to make the local soybeans grow and ripen right away, so we had to buy most of them, 3,000 tons, and they continued to cook and eat the rest. ”
Xiaobei explained why edamame beans were brought in, mainly to help local growers reduce losses.
The students can guess that the price they give will not be very low, and of course they will not give the price of ripe soybeans, so it is a great favor to let the people there maintain themselves without losing money.
"When we buy soybeans, we naturally have to cook them, and the green beans are more laborious to preserve, and the boiled ones are sterilized at high temperatures and have a little salt. We really didn't want to wait for the waterway, and the speed of the countercurrent was slow, so we used the train to pull it.
We have prepared a thousand cauldrons, one pot can cook fifty kilograms, it needs to be boiled six hundred times, one pot in a quarter of an hour, and other pots are being transferred here, and it is estimated that it will take several days.
Actually, I'd rather cook people than fucking edamame now. I asked you to come to tell you that you will have the opportunity to become a magistrate in the future, and you will investigate the local situation before you can do things. As for the local officials involved in this matter, wait for us to finish cooking the edamame. ”
Xiaobei gritted his teeth and said, with a gloomy look on his face, people knew at first sight that the officials involved were going to be unlucky, and there were 3,000 tons of edamame, and there was no excuse or reason.
"Xiaobei, can you just buy the beans and cook them?" An older student asked.
"How is it possible, you have to freeze it, or why don't you process it locally in Chuzhou? Winter in the capital comes early, which can reduce follow-up investment. I chose the West Station because there was a big pit in the place after a kilometer, which turned out to be a small lake, which dried up and was not cost-effective to fill it with soil.
A few of us discussed, decided to build a bottom insulation warehouse, the project is about to end, just in the past few days, originally planned to preserve the fruit, now have to put edamame, is a helpless way. ”
"Xiaobei, why don't you just boil the edamame and sell it in the store? Your family's power is so big, it's easy. Someone asked again.
"Hee-hee~!" As soon as he talked about it, Xiaobei smiled happily, blinked his eyes, and said: "It's worthless to sell now, we will lose money, you calculate, buy it at a local premium, plus the cost of transportation, processing, and storage." When you go to the restaurant, the price is really high, but it is a low price advantage of the original restaurant.
In other words, we put the edamame we bought in the restaurant, we make money, and the restaurant loses, so we directly care how good it is for our brothers and sisters to ask for money, why bother to go around. ”
Everyone thinks this is the truth, but they can't think of what Xiaobei laughs at.
"I'll tell you, soybeans are normally related to sunshine, such as the south, and places with less precipitation, as well as places with low temperatures, such as the northeast, but this refers to the situation of soybeans, soybean oil yield, soybean product shipment rate, has nothing to do with taste.
For example, the edamame we bought, because of the climate, is not ripe, and if we miss the time, we can ripen after a while, but one delays the sowing of other things, and the other is that the beans are not full. But there is a good thing, the current edamame tastes sweet and tastes better than normally grown edamame.
We plan to save it for the winter to take it out and sell it, the price is several times cheaper, this time it is a commercial activity, not specifically for charity, we are nothing more than pressing goods, anyway, our money can not be fully circulated, do not care about the speed of cash turnover and the rate of return when pressing goods.
You get the idea, right? If you don't believe it, wait for a pot to be boiled and you can taste it, don't look at the relatively small beans, but the more you chew them, the more fragrant they become, which is different from the taste of normal soybeans and edamame. ”
Xiaobei said, found that others had a lot of saliva swallowing, thought about their own behavior, and said embarrassedly: "Otherwise, when the winter is approaching the New Year, I will give you ten catties alone, don't look at it is cooked and frozen, after it is slightly melted, the taste is no different, or ....... twenty catties?" I also have a cost, okay, okay, let's see when the time comes, if it really can't be sold, I'll give you more, go and transport things, the train is coming. ”
The old and energetic to push the wheelbarrow, the young and the young waited excitedly, they believed in what Xiaobei said earlier to send twenty catties, and did not report any hope for the later said that it could not be sold and sent more.
